odd, or just, different.

it has a great advantage, newbies like Nathan should be much less bothersome because he knows the levels much better already.

Maybe he saw the fairly dismissive way that a lot of n00bs are treated here and decided to build his times to a decent level before entering the rankings. I don't know. It doesn't seem useful to speculate either way, we might just as well wait for the tapes.

I particularly can't understand why Mouser would want to avoid getting credit for all of his times, anyway. That seems like a conspiracy theory too far. Unless I'm missing something?

^ Used the word 'n00b' incorrectly. He is a newb to the elite but not ot the game, and not a n00b because he isn't acting like he knows everything when he knows nothing and being a total fag.
I do realize someone will say "yeah, a n00b like you" or something. Whatever pal!

n00bs get treated badly since they deserve it by being stupid in general.

Newbies get treated by respect on the other hand by not being annoying asses.

Since my whole point was that he's not a n00b, what are you actually disagreeing with?

lol I just woke up and expected a post by Nathan since I last checked... Maybe we scared him off. :lol

I hope not. >_>

I'm disagreeing with the n00b part, of course.
He doesn't act annoying, like alecboy for example.

So that would place him in the newbie category. I.e, he wouldn't have anything to be afraid of by making his presence known earlier.

pwned.

As in he decided to get out of the n00b stage before he joined the community so he wouldn't be treated like one. Mind you, he is probably far past the n00b stage and could've joined earlier without getting flamed.

Welcome, congrats on the times, but I honestly don't respect the whole "i don't have enough money to send tapes" thing. If you've really been following the ranks and playing for 4 years, then you must be itching to get on the ranks, and you won't do that until you provide proof. There are no exceptions to this, and saying you don't have enough money isn't even close to being a valid excuse.

Even if you use the slowest possible mail (which is fine, the important thing is to actually SEND the tapes) to somebody in the US, or a guy like Alex, you won't need to pay more than 5 or 10 dollars. Seriously, if you don't have that, you should be out finding a job rather than spending time with GE. Even so, since you care about GE and your times (as, presumably, somebody who has been playing for that long would), then I'm sure you can summon the motivation to find 10 bucks somehow.

Either way, the whole "I don't have enough money to send tapes" just doesn't work. It ain't legit, and personally I don't even believe it.

mrsooreams · « **Reply #60 on:** June 14, 2006, 06:18:00 pm »

No one thinks "I know, I'll be an annoying n00b." It just happens to some people. Obviously it didn't happen to this guy. Genuinely though, I hope he's legit, because it'd make such a good story.

Troublesome Moral Code · « **Reply #61 on:** June 16, 2006, 07:07:00 am »

I'd say you can take down the announcement that's in the header of the boards... It doesn't look like Nate's coming back. $:\$

Also I wish there was a way that topics with new replies wasn't bumped to the top.

typosaur · « **Reply #62 on:** June 16, 2006, 08:13:00 am »

Oh he'll be back, if his times are indeed legit that is. He's probably busy getting his tapes sent out and will return when his times are finally proven.

RWG · « **Reply #64 on:** June 16, 2006, 10:20:00 am »

Yea, I don't think Nathan will be back.

Though I want him to come back, and be proven anf stuff.

Wouter Jansen · « **Reply #65 on:** June 16, 2006, 04:32:00 pm »

I think my secret account is just playing games with all of you. I have many of those.

RK · « **Reply #66 on:** June 19, 2006, 10:20:00 pm »

I think I remeber seeing 'gotoAndPlay' on the 15 minnute logged in thing. He may have been watching the forums, thus picking up strats. I think this kid may be real. That is... if he comes back...

Edit: Didn't read Cervones post...Keepers excuse is pretty bad, I just...dont know... now im kinda doubting.
